They probably ran it down the side of the dash and behind the glove box...But if they didn't, don't cut the antenna wire, just leave it there and buy a new one

Its really not that hard getting the wires out...

 

Since your car is totalled, you can just tear things apart like your passenger side a-pillar.

they probly ran it down the a pillar and weatherstripping, dont bother cutting it, u wont get good signal. if u cant save it just get another one
